Description

In #6346, we are trying to fix the problem where write_only fields are not showing up in the api schema. We think though that most of the use of write_only fields are unnecessary. In some cases, a serializer with write_only fields can be split in two: one for read operations and one for write operations. In other cases, write_only fields can be converted to SecretCharFields.

This task is to go through and try to eliminate write_only field usage when possible. From there we can examine which use cases still require use of write_only fields.

List of write_only still in use:

pulpcore:

  • relative_path on the SingleArtifactContentSerializer OK, since there is no relative_path in the database model. Also it is dynamically deactivated.
  • dry_run on the PulpExportSerializer. Obviously ok, as this will not persist in the db.
  • full and versions on the PulpExportSerializer. Should those values be persisted?
  • add/remove_content_units' on the RepositoryAddRemoveContentSerializer`. Is this a POST-only serializer?
  • file on the UploadChunkSerializer. OK, special case for file uploads.
  • file and repository on the UploadSerializerFieldsMixin. OK, special case for file uploads and the repository being used for a non exclusive convenience association.

pulp_gem:

  • file, repository and artifact on theGemContentSerializer. Could use the UploadSerializerFieldsMixin. Artifact is special here.

pulp_container:

  • content_units on the RecursiveManageSerializer. Probably a POST-only serializer.
  • source_repository and source_repository_version on the CopySerializer. Probably a POST-only serializer.
  • containerfile on the OCIBuildImageSerializer. Probably a POST-only serializer.

Everything on the PulpExporter POST is persisted in the 'params' field.

We need to remove the write_only designation on the RepositoryAddRemoveContentSerializer serializer fields in pulpcore.

We need to remove the write_only designation on the OCIBuildImageSerializer, CopySerializer, RecursiveManageSerializer serializers in pulp_container.
